DISCUSSED LIFE INSURANCE
Congress May Authorize Legislature

Fiersl Court.
CHICAGO, August 4.—Three hours
of discussiou; of life insurance prob

mittee of the Iroquois Club yesterday.
left only one question in the minds of
the investigators: It was:
“Is Congress authorized under the
present federal constitution to enact
legislation placing the t_ompanics un-
der federal supervision."
, , The possibility of improved state
.' regulation is not regarded with so
j' much hope
‘ A subcommittee of four attorneys
who have made a study of life insur-
ance laws was appointed to look into
the questions of constitutional limita-
tions on Congressional action and to
report to the regular committee at the
0nd of two weeks. It also is requested
to investigate any measures to make
more effectual the supervision of the
state sup‘erintlendont
‘ 1 The committee members will confine
‘ their attention almost entirely to
learning if the insurance business may
be classed as inter-state commcrcc
Ind thus come under the jurisdiction
of Congress. If thc decision is reach-
at! that the legislation required is be-
yond their authority. measures I01 sc-
ouring a constitutional amcndment
will be considered.
1 There are now two bills for the
federal regulation of insurance pend
lug In Congress, one fathcrcd by Con
iresbman Morrcll and the other by
Senator Dryden. who suggests a com-
prehensive system of control. Neither
has been acted upon, and the question
or federal jurisdiction never has been
presented to the supreme cotut.
